Pipeline Progressing

The expression of interest is open for the design and construction of the Quipolly water project including a new water treatment plant and pipelines to Werris Creek and Quirindi.

Mayor Andrew Hope said it was an exciting development in the project.

“The Quipolly water project is one of the largest projects we have undertaken in the Shire and it is good to see we have reached a major milestone in making it a reality,” said Mayor Hope.

“The expression of interest is open and from this process we wil narrow it down to a tender process,” he said.

“It is important for the delivery of the project that we have one contractor or constorium overseeing and being responsible for every detail, so that the whole project is coordinated,” he said.

“So that the community can be kept up to date with progress on the water project we have launched a new website, facebook, twitter and intsgram page and people can fill in their details to reviece emails or sms messages when we publish new information,”

“Information will also be available at the Council Chambers and our libraries; as things progress events will be held at Werris Creek and Quipolly Dam,” he said.

“It is great to see the project starting to take shape,” Mayor Andew Hope said.
